Chapter 44: Big slide

A little fun wouldn’t hurt anyone!

Alex and Remia went to try out a few swimsuits. Of course, Alex felt a little troubled as he appeared like a catman to everyone.

He needed a male fairy’s help, just so that he wouldn’t look weird. He asked a few questions about whether he did not look odd.

But since the male’s swimsuit was simple, Alex simply looked normal to everyone. He was too troubled because he didn’t know how he looked like a catman.

Alex took some time, but Remia spent even more in the changing room.

At last, she came out, “I am late! Have I made you wait for too long?”

“Actually, I needed some more time, too,” Alex chuckled, “I am not familiar with cat people.”

Schnee looked like a woman. All she had from her race was just tail and cat ears. Perhaps she could also take a humanoid cat form or become a little cat. Regardless, Alex had never seen that side.

His image of cat people was kinda lacking.

Remia tilted her head and looked at him, “You look good.”

“If you say so… Well, that’s all that matters,” Alex brightly smiled.

“As for me, it seems like I got bigger. I needed to measure myself,” she rolled her eyes and slightly pulled her swimsuit.

After she let it go, that piece of cloth slapped her tits back, making Alex cough.

Remia, as the forest fairy, looked like a human too. She had just little different ears whose ends curled. In a swimsuit, her charm heightened. And she seemed carefree enough to talk about her three sizes with Alex.

Although Alex didn’t expect that, he didn’t let himself get too flustered.

At last, the duo went for some fun.

Remia took the lead, “As a kid, I was scared of that big slide. Even now, it looks quite frightening.” She pointed at the slide in the middle.

The whole Aqua Park was made out of nature. The forest fairies used their skills to make the water flow up and down. The trees cooperated with their wish and formed mild and dangerous slides.

Of course, everything was safe. The forest fairies paid a lot of attention to their best touring spot and ensured that everyone could enjoy it safely.

A few other races were here as well.

Alex saw demi-human kids and their parents enjoying their time here. He once again got reminded of his little friend, Celia.

Not letting those thoughts stop him from having fun, Alex whispered, “That big slide, huh… It sounds like you are still a little scared of it.”

Now that Alex was within the pool, the giant slide looked quite terrifying. It was like the queen’s tree, vast and broad. Of course, that was just a comparison. If someone were to make a slide from the queen’s tree, it would be the most dangerous slide ever!

It would make the current big slide relatively mild…

Remia stopped swimming toward it and replied, “I am not! I will prove it to you.”

“Well then… I will be watching from here,” Alex jested.

For a second, Remia’s little face paled. Her green eyes trembled, and she looked so shocked that she nearly drowned in the pool.

Her hands moved, and she replied, “You are going with me, right?”

Before Alex replied, a loud voice rang out from behind him, “We will go with you!”

The group of three demi-human kids swam their way toward Remia and Alex. They looked no younger than twelve years old.

In the middle was a young forest fairy. He looked pretty similar to Remia as he had green hair and eyes.

On his left, he had his friend with bear ears. And on his right, his friend had dog ears.

Three of them swam fast as if no one was scared of the water. No, it was like they were little kings of this pool!

They circled around Remia and Alex, but their eyes were on the beautiful lady.

The forest fairy kid said, “We also have to try that big slide. We will go with you, princess!”

Then, their faces sank halfway into the water, “But you have to hug us!”

Their cheeks reddened.

Alex raised his eyebrow, “Already at that age, huh?”

They glanced at him, then shifted their eyes back at Remia.

Remia smiled widely, “You three are so brave. Let’s do it!” And then, she turned her eyes toward Alex, “As adults, we can’t disappoint little ones.”

“I get it, I get it,” Alex lifted his hands in surrender.

Five of them climbed up the stairs toward the big slide.

From the highest point, the aqua park looked much different.

Alex raised his hand to block the sun, then looked around, whistling as he found that sight indeed exciting, “My heart skipped a beat. What about you guys?”

No one replied.

Alex found that weird, so he turned around.

Here, Remia and the three little friends trembled vividly. They didn’t even come close to the rails, their bodies shaking nonstop. Little ones grasped Remia’s hands, tightly holding onto her as if the ground would soon crumble.

Remia was no better.

“…”

“A-Alex, you have to hug me too!” Remia stuttered.

And then, as if feeling wronged, the little kids pointed their fingers at Alex, “What are you?! You can’t be a cat! Cats are scared of water!”

‘Aren’t dogs scared of water too? Your friend looked like a shark before,’ Alex inwardly replied.

He then sighed as the situation didn’t seem to develop.

He sat down on a slide, “Come, Remia. We will do it together.”

Being encouraged by a reliable friend, Remia made her way toward Alex. She sat down on his thigh. She no longer trembled as Alex wrapped his arm around her waist.

He held her tightly, “Tame this fear, and you will become stronger! Now, what about our little friends?”

The three kids shook their heads, “We can’t! We can’t!”

Remia nodded and replied, “It’s okay! I was also scared as a kid. You guys will do it in a few years!”

“T-Thank you, miss!”

At last, Alex and Remia went down!

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”

The princess’s screams reverberated throughout the whole aqua park.

On that day, the little three swore to overcome the big slide; as adults, that was!
